Calvin Watkins of ESPN reports:

Peja Stojakovic was one of the more dangerous shooters during his prime.

Now 33, he has provided only a few fleeting moments.

In his first NBA Finals, Stojakovic is struggling mightily. A liability on defense, Stojakovic scored his first points of the series Sunday night but isn’t making shots like he used to. He was benched for all but four seconds of the second half in Game 3. He was on the court for the last shot — a miss by Dirk Nowitzki — in the Mavs’ 88-86 loss to the Miami Heat.

Stojakovic finished 1-for-2 from the field with two points in just over six minutes of action.
